Benefits of Quit Smoking HypnotherapyFirst of all, don't be so hard on yourself. Nearly everyone who has successfully quit smoking has relapsed at least once the average ex-smoker relapsed three to four times, before they achieve success. Hypnotherapy helps you quit smoking by dealing with all the elements that addicted you in the first place. How It Works Nicotine works on the cholinergic pathways of the brain. It gives your body a wake-up call, it re-energizes you and gives you the ability to focus and increases reaction time. These characteristics are essential to your livelihood. Hypnotherapy helps you quit smoking by substituting healthy thoughts and behaviors that will allow you to be alert, focused and energized without the need of chemicals. The nicotine in cigarettes promotes the release of dopamine to the reward pathways of your brain. Dopamine encourages the brain to repeat pleasurable activities. In other words, it ignites the addiction. Nicotine makes you feel happy and calm, and the dopamine released from brain as a result of the nicotine, tells the brain: "Hey let's do that again." Hypnotherapy assists with quitting smoking by providing healthy non-chemically induced ways to release dopamine into the reward pathways. Nicotine also triggers the release of the neurotransmitter glutamate that stimulates learning and memory. Glutamate strengthens the connections between sets of neurons. The release of glutamate aids in your addiction to nicotine by strengthening the memory of the good feelings achieved from smoking. Hypnotherapy to quit smoking breaks the connections and helps build new connections to healthy activities. A study by University of Washington researcher, Dr. Joseph Barber, found that stop smoking hypnotherapy had been particularly effective. Dr. Barber found that for a single session of hypnotherapy to quit smoking 25% of the participants remained non-smokers after a 6-12 month period. Of the participants who had multiple sessions of hypnotherapy to quit smoking, 66% were non-smokers after a 6-12 month period. Hypnotherapy is a powerful method to help you become a successful non-smoker. Whether you choose a single session or multiple sessions, hypnotherapy will contribute to your success. Used alone or in tandem with nicotine replacement medications, hypnotherapy increases you chances for success. |
